Time is SHORT… I’m getting MORE food storage because YOU CAN’T HAVE TOO MUCH!

September 4, 2024 M.D. Creekmore

When SHTF, food is the first thing to go! So, I’m doing all I can while I still can, and you should too. My goal is to reach a 5-year supply, and I’m getting close. If you’ve read my book, then you know that I stockpile a variety of foods—everything from wheat, rice, beans, oats, and canned goods, to long-term storage foods like the kit below.

Pre-packaged survival foods offer many benefits: they’re lightweight, compact, and have an extremely long shelf life of 25 years or more, so you can ‘set it and forget it’ without the need for constant rotation. The only real downside is that you have to add water, while store-bought canned foods come with water included. However, canned foods have a much shorter shelf life, are heavier, and take up more storage space.

You can get this 4-week food supply at My Patriot Supply or at Amazon.com…

    Right on MD. Time is short. I feel things will be happening fast. Not much time left. October will be an interesting month. Lots will probably happen prior to November election and the government period leading up to Inauguration . Folks prep and Get get right with God. MD God Bless and stay safe.

    Anybody with one eye and half sense can see what is coming towards us, and them that ain’t already ready don’t stand moch chance of having enough time to get ready, many years ago, I read the book “Alas, Babylon by Pat Frank, and realized that this is a VERY REAL probability, and started preparing, I’ve never stopped…

    I’d just like to point out that you can save 33 bucks if you go to MyPatriotSupply directly. 237 vs 270.
    I don’t like feeding Mamazon.
